Radiologic technologists in Hawaii are required to hold a state license in order to practice. This process can begin once the educational components have been completed (regardless of the type of program that was selected) and the student has successfully completed the ARRT national certification examination. The Hawaii State Radiologic Technology Board, a division of the Hawaii Department of Health (www.hawaii.gov/health) is the agency responsible for collecting the applications and approving individuals for a Hawaii license. An application, along with supporting information and the application fee of $60 is to be submitted to the Board for consideration. Once you have completed this process, if you meet all the criteria, you will be issued a license and are then eligible to begin practicing as a radiologic technologist in Hawaii.
